I’ll start:

‘This doesn’t work for us’
there is no way in this earth that we will do this

‘No’
a complete sentence with no need of explanation

‘Excuse me, I must just check something in my room’
and leave Thais situation before I am rude

"How charming"

"What an interesting point of view"

"Indeed"

All polite. All meaningless.

'That's nice' to everything with a swig of booze. Thankfully I no longer do big family christmases!
